Strategy
Setting the long-term direction of the program: which audiences, institutions and contexts the work should reach, and in what order.
Cultural Work
Rooted in DovBer Marchette's decades of artistic investigation, the project develops curatorial questions about creativity, process and recognition that can be explored beyond one artist — inviting each participating artist to respond through their own distinct practice.
I lead strategy, partnerships, communications and international coordination for the project. Practically, that has meant developing an exhibition program in Italy from the United States and building the relationships that make such a program possible: curators, cultural stakeholders, press and institutional contacts.
To date the initiative has grown into a multi-year program spanning twelve international exhibitions in Italy, alongside broader institutional conversations. The program is built in close collaboration with the Italian curatorial team, Fabrizio Sorbi and Gabriella Diddi, whose curatorial contribution is integral; Fabrizio's wider curatorial practice and his relationships with multiple artists create opportunities for broader collaborative programs.
Widening the project is not about adding names to an exhibition list or promoting a single artist. DovBer's investigation is a starting point, not a model to imitate: the questions it opens up are there for each artist to explore through their own practice, in their own terms.
The cultural work and the operating work are the same discipline. An exhibition program is a supply chain, a stakeholder map, a communications system and a trust-building exercise running at once.
Scope of the Role
Setting the long-term direction of the program: which audiences, institutions and contexts the work should reach, and in what order.
Working with curators, venues, cultural organizations and institutional contacts across the United States and Italy.
Maintaining a consistent, accurate narrative about the artist and the work across exhibitions, press and public materials.
Running the practical program across borders, languages and time zones — scheduling, logistics, materials and follow-through.
Curators, galleries, cultural institutions and corporate partners are invited to explore thoughtful programs together — including multi-artist conversations where appropriate.
